CARRYING CAPACITY ASSESSMENT AND STRENGTHENING OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES OPERATING IN CHEMICALLY AGGRESSIVE ENVIRONMENT
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper presents a case of an industrial building in the chemical works, in which intensive production processes caused corrosion and weakened structural members. The results of investigations and static strength analysis are provided. They were necessary to assess the reliability of the structure operating under chemical corrosion conditions corresponding to the XA exposure class. The repair plan, already implemented, together with selected components of the building structural upgrade design are presented.
